The Con stitution provides only for biennial ses ' slons of tho Legislature; and the de- ranged state of our Territorial laws will provijioni oi mo uonstitution. ibe Am( flniA. nfllm .A.A.An.u.:..M t .... ,, w' '"" "l"""' " peopie nen mey snail meet, is to en " act such laws as will secure free suf frage and regulate elections prohibit ing all undue Influences, and punishing with suitable penalties nil briberies and any other improper efforts to iufluence elections. Article 4, section 22, of the Constl tution provides that, "No act shall ever be revised or amended by mere reference to its title, but the act revised or section amended shall be set forth and published at full length." This will require great care on the part ol tho LegUIstors, to prepare the present territorial laws to conform to the Con stitution so as to make them effectual and operative.

Ipon receivlDg local prejudices and sectional strife. It becomes the duty of the Lcgitla tare, ct the earliest possible period, to proTide for and ettabliih an uniform system of common schools. This is an all important matter, not only to the adult inhabitants of the State, at the present time, bat more important to the , youth and growing population, and, ". "" fo I!'' and stand ing of our State. Congress has, and will continue, without doubt, to be lib- 'oral, donating land Tor common schools and Unirersity purposes. Then lot the ' first Legislature examine well and adopt a good common school system. Thero is only one other subject that space and opportunity permits us tu refer to at present, and that Is the sob ject of taxation. This is all-important, for, without a just, fair and proper sys tem of taxation, our young Stato, with lts"present and prospective population for several years, must be necessarily burlhcncd with high taxos. It is not our objsct to embarrass any subject, or by rcferenco to it to allow any miscon struction of our position. Although we admit that our nresent population'1 I docs not exceed that ratio of apportion ment that will entitle us to one repre sentative in Congross, yet we claim that, for the purpose of taxation, there is no community in proportion to num bers that is better able to pay a rea sonable tax than are tho citizens of( Oregon. It should bo the object of all good men, and moro particularly the ' representatives of the people, to pro vide, at an early period, for a gradation ' for the rcductiou of the taxes that will be necessary for the support of our 'present economical Stato Government,, To do this. lit m rernmmnnrt in tlio' first Legislature of tbe State of Oregon j to memorialize Congress, earnestly and fairly setting forth tho fact, asking that for Oregon which has been granted to the States of irgima, Mississippi, Loo isiana, Texas, California and a number of other States, that is, granting to the State tbe swamp and mountain lands within its limits. Can any reasonable man doubt for a moment about Con grcis donating to the State of Oregon the mountains within tbe limits of the State t We think not When once eenred to the State, let tbe Legislature provide for tuo disposal of tho lands, placing the proceeds thereof In the ' I State Treasury, to be applied as tbe Legislature my direct, and thereby disposing of large tracts of mountain lands at almost any price so as to place it in the hands of individuals, so that the owners may become interested in,, i trance 825, added to the purse, one and contribute to tbe support of a State i half forfeit; one single dash of a mile; Government, by paying taxes on the i free for all three year olds or under.

The foregoing are only a few hasty suggestions, for the purpose of bringing some of the important questions to be acted upon, before the people ; and it is to be hoped that more interest will be taken In the promotion of the pros perity of our young State than has hitherto been exhibited. Let the rep resentees of the people discuss such questions as are calculated to promote' I !teti.E tlLa.""!! ! devote their time honestly and fairly to the duties which each man owes to his country, instead of party and personal bickering!, and. our word for it, there ! be more genera! satisfaction among' tbe peoj'le.
